Pet care experience

DependableKnowledgeableProfessional

I grew up having dogs … Got My First Dog when I was 5 and always been around them … I’m 💯 a love dog person … Always taking Care dogs From family and friends when they are away or on vacation… been around them more than work is a pleasure… what could be more gratifying than doing what you love the most. Perfectly Fine Since I work From Home. Also, My Mom leave with Me, so, your Fur Baby will never be alone. Plenty time to take Long Walks with Them. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly poodle (17 years old) to keep your fur baby company. If needed can easily crate your fur baby.

Maria was excellent with my 8 month old Georgina. She pays attention to detail and treated my pup as if it were her own. Took her to the dog parks and Maria sent me so many photos/videos. Plus their resident dog got along so well with my pup and they had such a great time, together . Definitely will be coming back and using her services.

Maria is simply an amazing person. She loves dogs and dogs love her. Maria took my 8 month/old Mika in a really short notice (2 days) and she kept me updated on what she was doing. Since Mika is still a puppy, I was really worried that she may be a little to much to care for. Not for Maria. My dog had the time of her life! I’m incredibly grateful to Maria and would absolutely trust her with Mika again! I would absolutely recommend Maria to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! Thank you Maria!

Second time having Maria watch Didi, my older dog. Maria is fantastic - based on all of the updates and pictures, it feels more like Didi is on her own vacation and not just being watched. I so appreciate all of the attention and love she brings to her caretaking. She is a true gem!

Maria always takes great care of my super-geriatric dog; he is very safe with her and he loves her mom!
